Oregon

Oregon women’s basketball guard Sabrina Ionescu was named espnW’s national player of the week after helping Oregon clinch its first Pac-12 regular season title since 1999-2000.

Washington State

Washington State women’s basketball redshirt sophomore Borislava Hristova was named to the All-Pac-12 Team, it was announced Tuesday morning. The Pac-12 year-end women's hoops awards will be announced Tuesday night on Pac-12 Network at 5 p.m. PT/6 p.m. MT.

Arizona State

Arizona State men’s basketball coach Bobby Hurley was fined $10,000 and reprimanded by the Pac-12 for verbally confronting officials after the Sun Devils’ loss at Oregon State on Saturday.

USC

Former USC quarterback Sam Darnold will not throw at the NFL scouting combine Saturday in Indianapolis, Shalise Manza Young of Yahoo Sports notes (initially reported by Adam Schefter). Darnold will throw at USC's pro day on March 21.

UCLA

Former UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen said there was no truth to the story that he didn’t want to play for the Cleveland Browns (Yahoo Sports). The Browns, in need of a quarterback, have the No. 1 and No. 4 picks in the first round, so there’s a decent chance Rosen could land there.

Oregon State

Oregon State has banned a fan from attending two women’s basketball home games for directing “derogatory statements” at an opposing player stemming from the Beavers' game vs. USC on Feb. 18. Danny Moran has more in the preceding link.

Stanford

Stanford volleyball all-time great Kerri Walsh Jennings will be inducted into the Pac-12 Hall of Honor, it was announced Monday. Walsh Jennings is a four-time Olympic medalist and was a four-time First Team All-American at Stanford in helping lead the Card to two national championships.

Colorado

Colorado lacrosse senior Darby Kiernan was named Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Week after scoring five goals in a 17-12 win over San Diego State.

Washington

Graham Hays of espnW writes that Washington softball’s success goes beyond its ace Taran Alvelo. The Dawgs are 18-0 after a perfect weekend at the Mary Nutter Classic.

Arizona

Here's a fun look at Makenna Martin's transition from indoor to beach volleyball, courtesy of Arizona Athletics. The Wildcats are off to a 3-0 start and host an invitational this weekend.

Utah

Dirk Facer of the Deseret News reminds us that Utah men’s basketball can earn a first-round bye in the Pac-12 Tournament. The Utes will need some help outside of just beating Colorado, though.

California
